No the cloud of witnesses are the Saints who have died and gone before
us.
This is why they are referred to as the cloud of witnesses.  Further,
Samuel
was called up by the witch of Andorra and asked why this was because of
two
reasons.  Firstly Jesus hadn't come yet and he was not in heaven yet.
He
wouldn't be till Jesus came to free him through his death.  Secondly,
Saul
called him up because of his selfishness not for a Godly reason, and
Samuel
probably didn't feel the need to assist him.  As far as Divvies is
concerned.  The saints don't witness to people the assist with support
and
intersession as do all of us who are on earth.  If we can ask any on
this
list whom we don't know to pray for us why can't we ask our dear
Christian
mother or father who has already gone to be with the lord.  Just because
people go to be with god doesn't mean they forget their loved ones whom
they
would have probably died for on earth.  Also, the Christians such as
Saints
peter and Paul who were martyred for their faith.  Do you think they no
longer care for us at least as a Christian community, particularly as
they
died for their faith and spent the later part of their lives spreading
the
gospel?  Also, as I said in my last post on the subject there was Elijah
and
mosses who appeared with our lord on the mount of transfiguration.  They
came to him to support him because he was to face an enormous trial and
he
needed the strength they could give him because he was a man as well as
being divine.  They spoke to him privately and he didn't faulter when he
went to the cross.  Heaven isn't just a place which becomes alive for us
when we die.  It is full of activity here and now.  What about the
admonition to watch the way we entertain because we may be entertaining
angels unaware.  I will end this too long e-mail now but I just wanted
to
mention those few things.
